this this race it will take a lot of money. so, where do the candidates stand not money game? in box two, putin is, once again, consolidating power as he looks to regain control of the nation. what does that mean for the united states and the rest of the world? we will get interest it. in box three, keeping money in the bank is about to get more expensive. why so many of you are about to kiss free checking goodbye. that's all ahead unless breaking news changes everything. this is "studio b," but, first from fox at high noon in las vegas, baby, a special "studio b" live from the pure nightclub at caesars palace celebrating the 15th fox anniversary. 15 years! man, i am old. we are just one of many shows hitting the road to thank you, our viewers, all across the nation for making fox news

channel number one in our nation, this hour we will get a taste of las vegas from elvis impersonators and the famous show girls. but, first, the news. a defense lawyer today is comparing the american girl convicted of killing her roommate during a drug fueled sex game to jessica rabbit, a cartoon. it has come to this. the woman is right now serving a 26 year prison term for the conviction. but amanda knox is in court, now, in italy, on appeal over allegations of tainted evidence and the court should set her free, but, now, the prosecution is pushing for a life sentence, instead. yesterday, during the appeals trial, a judge called amanda a , but her lawyer says she is like jessica rabbit arguing she is

"not bad, she's just drawn that way." as the circus continues in italy. trace is reporting on this, this afternoon, from the west kept news hub. the attorney would made the jessica rabbit comment, she isn't even her attorney. >>trace: she the attorney for the former boyfriend of amanda knox and she is prosecuting it this way because she believes he was convicts of the crime because she believes if she cannot down the evidence again amanda that can get her client free. she says the problem is haste, haste to find evidence, haste to resolve the case. the attorney says that amanda knox was up fairly portrayed. listen to this. i think amanda knox has been portrayed like jessica rabbit because it fits with the motive which was a party, a young girl who involved her boyfriend, made

him do what she wanted, involved him in an orgy because he had nothing to do with meredith and the character was needed of a female dominator. >>trace: the attorney said that amanda knox is not a sex obsessed she-devil but a very cari and loving young woman. >>shepard: sex obsessed she-devil. aside from the ridiculousness, the images really are over-the-top. >>trace: more today. the prosecution showed more images of meredith after she was murdered and the prosecution says the reason he showed these is to convince the people in the court almost this is not a division show and try to convey to them how much meredith actually suffered. the lawyers did not revisit the d.n.a. evidence, though, which is surprising because remember the prosecution's case was badly damaged when a panel of independent experts came in and

undermined almost all of the d.n.a. evidence if this case. we could have a ruling in this case by mid-to-late next week. >>shepard: all right, trace, thank you from los angeles. a lot more on the foxy knoxy appeals trial. our legal panel is coming up including a statement from amanda knox's father who says she has been working for more than three months later in the newscast. fox news is america's election headquarters in the g.o.p. candidate running for president, are facing a fundraising deadline this week that could really define the next phase of the race because without the money you can't do it. romney led the pack in the last quarter raising some $18 million in donations, but, most of that was before the texas governor rick perry entered the race late. and our main man on politics is live in washington this afternoon. the governor rick perry is considered the national front

runner. how does he do now raising money? >>carl: we will find out on friday and we will see the public disclosure of it in another two weeks and we will see where the money was spent and on what things. but, for rick perry he got in halfway through the quarter and you would normally have three months and he gets only seven weeks and the aides are low balling, lowering expectations suggesting that they will be pleased, happy, satisfied, if he raised $10 million but rick perry was a prolific fundraiser during the gubernatorial campaigns and he has a donor list with thousands of g.o.p. names so it would be entirely possible for him to exceed $15 million and they would consider that a triumph. romney, on the other hand, yes, he raised $18.5 million in the second quarter which was more than all of the rivals combined but, romney and his wife and his sons have been on the trail raising money for him, or trying to, and they state recession has hurt the donors and made it

difficult to put bucks in the bank and will not reach the $18.5 million raised from the second quarter but he will exceed $10 million and he could tie or best rick perry but the bigger thing to watch is how much catch they will have on hand. this period puts gas in the thank for the sprint to the first caucus in iowa and first primary in new hampshire. they are worried about exceeding the speed limit and reaching the finish line. >>shepard: we learned chris christie not running. the circus over preventing a partial government shut down and freeing up cash for natural disaster victims has ended for now but lawmakers have delayed the larger fight for another five weeks. delay, delay, delay. last night senate lawmakers reached the last minute deal to keep our government running through the middle of november and that will provide nearly $3

billion for disaster victims along the way and the fight, really, boiled counsel to emergency cash for fema and that agency said the disaster relief fund would run dry before the end of the fiscal year which is on friday, and that was until yesterday when fema officials said they could stretch that fund just a little bit longer. and mike image is -- mike emanuel is on hill. the fight over fema money, was that all for nothing, was that political? what was it, mike? >> fema certainly helped the situation when they sent a letter saying the $114 million cash on hand it had with no hurricanes off the coast at this point, would most likely be enough to get through the end of the fiscal year this week so then it was about for iting over 2012 spending which made the fight go away and not adding to this year's tab, so, then a bipartisan vote happened, and senate majority leader harry reid expressed relief.

>> this ensures that fema will have the funds they need to provide food and shelter to the people who have been affected by the disaster. and they can restart the program that has been brought to a screeching halt in joplin, missouri, cairo, illinois, and north carolina, all over texas and, of course, in louisiana. >> in the end the democrats expressed releadership and were happy that green energy programs were not still on the chopping block. >>shepard: seems like we never get a budget just a track -- temporary budget bill. >> necessity week we expect the house take up the longer term deal to get us through mid-november. not end, republicans sound happy feeling like they were good stewards of the tax dollars. >> i think this is a vindication

of what republicans have been saying all along. before we spend the taxpayers' money we should have a real accounting, a real accounting, of what is actually needed. >> at least the third threatened government shut down has been averted. at least the third and the last five months, anyway, and there will be a fight i am sure soon. >>shepard: mike emanuel, like in washington, good to see you. so, at home have you looked at your bank statement lately? look at the checking costs. friend free checking? that is a memory of the welcome to the new reality of banking. we will show you how it affects tens of millions. in the struggles economy, las vegas has had it very bad. but, it is beginning to bounce become or appears to, a live look down on the streets of sin city as we are like at caesar's palace. is that elvis? are you kidding me? only in las vegas.

>>shepard: the unending trial of a woman in italy, the father

of amanda knox says next week his daughter will deliver a statement she has been working on for three months. again, this is according to her father. the woman dubbed foxy knoxy is the last person scheduled to speak before the court if her appeals trial. and now, our legal analyst and former prosecutor, arthur aidala and noted criminal defense attorney randy zelin. randy, from the looks of the evidence and the way the trial has come down it is difficult for americans to understand how this has worked but, now, the ball is in her court. >>randy: they have done well in this appeal, and as arthur has said, italian law is different. you try the whole thing over again on appeal. they have knocked out, aside from the vacation schedule, they knocked out the d.n.a. evidence that was critical to put her there. why now put her on where my

opinion she can only talk herself interest trouble. i would leave it alone and she goes home, i think. >>arthur: i think the biggest difference is that unlike in american law she is cross-examined i don't believe she is going to be cross examined by the prosecution. i think she makes a statement like a defendant does at sentencing, as to what her side of the story is and there are two judges, six citizens who are jurors and you called it right, a herculean task to overcome the original verdict to go from guilty of murder to absolutely not guilty and go home back to america. >>shepard: in the united states, randy, you have to have significant changes in the evidence or something during the original trial has to have been ruled to have been wrong to be able to go through this process. how does this work? >>randy: here you have seen it with the d.n.a. evidence.

remember the judge calls the experts and the experts to a person said, you have to be kidding me. this evidence has been contaminated. it is not trust worth any. it has been screwed up. it goes out the window. so, we have a similarity to the american law which is, you see what we would call reversible error, the evidence should not have gone in, it is not reliable. without the evidence he is home by thanksgiving. >>shepard: arthur the judge in this case says things about this convicted woman that to a judge in the united states would have said, would have gotten a judge kicked off the bench. do you know what i'm talking about? >>arthur: absolutely, after she was convicted. the media in italy right now is clearly on amanda knox% side. her boyfriend is on trial, as wealth, during this appeals process. his attorney actually in her closing arguments, the attorney is a female, did a spectacular

job defending amanda knox, as well, and the bottom line is, is the media accurately report traying what the judge is appealing and as we just learned sometimes the media can think a verdict goes one way and it goes the other way but right now in italy the sentiment she will get a new trial if not be sent home and be totally exonerated. >>shepard: what an ordeal for this woman and her family. arthur and randy, thank you both. the trial of the so-called underwear bomber, or would be underwear bummer -- bomber will not happen in detroit. so what can we expect in the man with tried to blow up a plane full of passengers? we will get a live report on that. but the motown group human nature as fox news celebrates 15 years on the air. it seems like yesterday, doesn't

>>shepard: this is "studio b" at the bottom of the hour and time for the top of the news live from las vegas at fox news

celebrating 15 years as america's fair and balanced network. president obama arriving in denver to pitch his big jobs plan. the same city where he started the presidential nomination and said much the money to pay for the plan comes from raising taxes on the wealthiest americans and cutting corporate tax listen holes. republicans have criticized the plan saying it would hurt job creators. the jobs push has become a big part of the president's re-election effort. and, today, the chief political advisor david axelrod admitted the president is facing "a titanic struggle," in 2012. quite a use of words. our chief white house correspondent is on the top story at the bottom of the hour traveling with the president. "titanic," is a fascinating word for the chief policemen advisor to use. i seem to remember the titanic had some problems. >>reporter: it did.

i think he was maybe using it as an adjective to "struggle," but yes, not good for the white house. you can see the president has been traveling on this three-day western swing that he is hitting some states where he won easily in 2008 but some polls show that he is struggling in large part because of the economy, and the president right new is trying to get away from the glitz of hole weed, a gritty area of denver speaking at a high school in a few moments talking about the school construction money in the jobs plan. we got a flavor of the argument he will make in 2012 where he went after republicans at the hollywood fundraiser. >> republicans are going around talking about, well, that is class warfare. if asking a billionaire to pay the same tax rate as a plumber, well, sign me up. that is a badge of honor.

>> it is interesting, as well, another reasonhy axelrod could be saying it will be a titanic struggle in 2012 is to wake up the democratic base, something the president has been doing in a lot of the fundraising events. he knows that there are some on the left disappointed. he is trying to get them worries. >>shepard: i would not be surprised if the republicans had a go time with the word "titanic." why colorado, why choose denver? >>guest: this is where he had the nominating convention in 2008 propelling him to a nine-point victory, a large victory over john paul stevens in this state in 2008 but right now, you know, his numbers are down here, and he still has an approval rating of 51 percent but disapproval is 46 percent showing in a state even like colorado where he did well last time he is struggle because unemployment is pretty high

here. >>shepard: yes, it is. thank you, ed, very much from denver. the pakistanis. man ... sometimes we are getting a warning that the pakistani prime minister that the united states could be triggering antiamericannism across his nation after a top u.s. official accused pakistani intelligence of links to the militants behind the 22-hour assault open the u.s. embassy there and a truck bombing sex days -- several days earlier. well, that could be creating antipakistan problems here. it is weird, jonathan, that the pakistanis are out there blowing our stuff up and complaining about us, inciting anti-americanism. i mean, it is backyards, isn't it? >>jonathan: it seems to be. it is, according to some u.s. officials, the pakistani foreign minister has begun her speech at the united nations general assembly in new york and she is

going to say in this speech that pakistan is committed to peace and stability in the region and is going to say that pakistan has a firm determination not to allow terrorists to operate on pakistani territory. in the meantime the pakistani prime minister issued another warning again today to the united states not to take unilateral military action on pakistani land. listen. >> we are a sovereign country. how can they come in and raid our country? >>jonathan: that has fallen on deaf ears, with u.s. missiles hitting militant strongholds in northern area of pakistan today. >>shepard: pentagon officials have been openly critical of pakistan but, now, they are toning it down. >>jonathan: the pentagon has been openly critical accusing them of having direct ties with the terrorist network in afghanistan, but, today, state

department officials dialed back on that a bit again talking about cooperation between the u.s. and pakistan. listen. >> we believe that we can strengthen our cooperation together and we can work together and tackle this threat. we with not be making this strong case if we didn't think that we can, should, and must do more together. >>jonathan: but we heard from the white house, the white house spokesman and carney has just said that the terrorist network is responsible for the attack on the u.s. embassy in kabul, and the pakistani government needed to make action to deal with the links that exist there. so, clearly this is an ongoing and major diplomatic problem between the u.s. and pakistan. >>shepard: and it has been going on for some time with our friends in pakistan. thank you. the man the prosecution says tried to blow up the detroit bound jet with explosive

underpants is back in court. he tried to ignite the bomb thing in his undies and it could have killed close to 300 people if he had a clue, and it exploded. the prosecution says they want to show a demonstration video to ove it. and now, mike, this is about whether they should be able to show a video of what might have happened but didn't happen, right? >>reporter: and now the judge will allow that evidence. the jury will see a model of what the underwear bomb looked like. before that unsuccessful detonation that only burned we the suspect. and what you were talking about, they will see a model of the bomb and show what it will look like on video if, indeed, it was entirely successful detonation. and the jury will get a look at what is called the martyr video, where a bomber makes before he sets off on a mission and what

is interesting, and he argued the jury should not see that video because non-muslims would not be able to understand it. and there is another video produced by al qaeda, and it shows how he was able to circumvents western security and the jury will see that, as well. >>shepard: all right, mike, thank you. the russian prime minister putin has always been ... a man's man. he rides horses, he monies -- he hunts whales and now he is taking control of his country. what does that mean for united states and russian relations? we are celebrating 15 years in your tv box and 15 years ago only my mom and the boss mile have been watching. we have come a long way, las vegas, baby. can you juggle this fast? the fastest juggler on earth, this one is. the fastest on earth.

>>shepard: 18 minutes to 1:00 o'clock in las vegas where we are celebrating 15 years in your tv box and a word of a power play in russia that the experts say could give the country's prime minister putin even more control. which might not be good according to some analyst whose question what that means for our relations with russia. that put pressure on iran over the nuclear program and provided support for american troops in afghanistan. according to reports the russian president has just fired the finance minister. now, he is credited with helping the country weather the worst of the global recession and as it turns out he spoke out against putin and the president's plan to switch places in the next

election. it is inside baseball that probably make months sense to anyone. and now, the washington bureau chief for the "wall street journal" owned by the parent company of this network. if you are not reading up on russia each day as quite frankly, i'm not, i'm concerned there to put it on black or red or to hit the 16, i think of that, what is the big problem with russia at this moment? they are going toward some sort of dictatorship looking thing. >>guest: they are. and that is the problem. the best way to look at this the united states found the president of russia reasonably conciliatory guy that they thought they could work with and he will be replaced in the presidential election in march certainly by putin would was president before, and now he will be again for as long as 12 years. two problems. it creates the russian strong man leadership style which is not necessarily good. and, second high, he is more confrontational with the united states on building missile defense system and on trade, and

economic relations. and, just overall, has been harder to deal with. so it is not a disaster. and, no one is shocked to see this coming. there was a feeling that putin did not go far away when he stopped being president, and he would come back but here we are. and he is not popular to congress, and it will be tougher for the administration to get things through when there are issues regarding russia. >>shepard: he has never been popular in congress. what sort of pressure in what sort of moves could the united states make behind the scenes that you know of to try to, make this more workable? >>guest: they will try to do what president obama has been trying to do before, to say, look, we can deal with this guy, here is not our favorite, but this will be, the rubber will hit the road on things like trade, for example. the white house has been trying to get congress to help bring russia into the world economic system a little bit more by having them join the world trade

organization and then congress would have to eliminate a law passed in the cold war putting trade sanctions on russia because they will not allow free jewish immigration. that has not been true and the administration has been trying to get congress to wipe out that legacy but it is harder now because putin, former kgb officers likes like a cold war leader and congress will balk at that now. >>shepard: thank you from the "wall street journal", the bureau chief. they do if russia is good hand balancers. become up. hand balancers. i will show you in a second. it has been two years sin the death of michael jackson, but, today the trial his personal doctor, the man who administered the deadly overdose to michael jackson, now he is on trial and it is in los angeles and the jury heard a chilling recording of michael jackson's voice this morning. we will play that for you and talk to our legal panel about

>>shepard: a humid day in las vegas, strange for las vegas, it is like 86 but feels like 92 so

there is liquid in the air. a jury hearing recordings of michael jackson weeks before he died, the pop star slurring his words at the time sounding drugged. the osecution played the audio during opening statements in the case against michael jackson's former dr. murray and you can hear michael jackson talking about the come back concert, that, well, never would happen. listen. (inaudible)

>>shepard: can you believe that? and nobody saw this coming? seriously? wow. the prosecution says michael jackson's doctor made that recording saying it showed he had to have known the singer wasn't well but continued to medicate him. the doctor is facing involuntary manslaughter charges and officials say he gave jackson a lethal dose of the powerful sedative and, today, the lawyers told the jury that jackson caused his own death by taking the fatal dose on his own. and now to the legal panel.

arthur aidala and randy zelin. i have not heard that sound bite before. arthur, i mean, how not world is he going to get beyond that in court? >>arthur: so sad. so sad. there is an argument th can be made that michael jackson was among the greatest entertainers in the world and to hear him in such a state that possibly was caused by a doctor? i think what, i know what the prosecutor is stressing in this case is that money, money, money drove this. $150,000 a month was the doctor's retainer, to take care of michael jackson. and it is so sad he allowed his greed to let his patient abuse himself. >>shepard: randy, michael jackson has always just sort of been a side show and it was sad he died but there was so much

weirdness throughout his life and today an old friend of mine who is a producer down at our station in miami we were friends when michael jackson and she was the biggest michael jackson fan ever and she her those tapes today and was grief stricken because to hear something like that, people around him had to have known. he is falling apart. people could say the doctor is lucky he is not charged with more than he is. >>randy: i it is here and it is difficult for me to be speechless but, listening to that for the first tie, it is difficult for me to actually focus on what it is i have to do but i tell you what i found startling, it was played by the prosecution. remember, the defense here, and the only defense here, is that doctor murray did not administer the low, the lethal death but michael jackson self medicated himself and killed himself but not on purpose. that is something the against would play not the prosecution

showing that michael jackson was on serious drugs. can the prosecution close the deal? can they put murray's hands on that i.v.? i don't think they can. >>shepard: did the idea from the prosecution, arthur, is it just to give those who are observing this an idea of how long this had been going on and, really, to say that michael jackson was to trouble before that dose was add ministered? >>arthur: the judge will give the prosecution exploring, with wide boundarys boundarys boundan so they can get a flavor how bad this was. it wasn't that the doctor kept it in the house and one time michael jackson snuck in and injected himself. this was a continued thing. the doctor, to allow him michael jackson to get this such a comatose take it is

reprehensible, it is for people who are about to be cut open in the operating room. that is how long it is and he was given it every note by -- ne by a doctor, that is bad. >>shepard: 15 years ago did you have hair, arthur? >>arthur: 15 years? i had wisps. little wisps. >>shepard: 15 years ago the screen was square, the graphics were brand new, and the idea had just been developed and the boss said, if you work hard at it, and you keep it fair and balanced, we're rule the world. now we do. is, next, show girls. why not? al game.
